12. Ok, make that "Radically different"
Edited on Fri Apr-11-08 02:35 PM by FlyingSquirrel
Basically I'm saying, birds of a feather flock together. Or, people's loyalties, inclinations, whatever lie more with the state they live in than anything else.

It's been a pretty clear trend IMO that in states clearly won by one candidate or the other, (not counting their home states), while there are some obvious cases where one candidate or the other for whatever reason gets more or fewer superdelegates than you'd think they would have gotten in that particular state, overall they're getting between 60-65% of the supers in the states they win.

Since it's such a close race and each individual superdelegate has their own opinion regarding who's "most electable", I'm thinking we'll see this pattern remain fairly steady until we have a nominee.
